Thanks. It is a pretty unique thing. I remember the first time I saw one and for a few moments I thought I was imagining things!

This little guy is called Ionopsis utricularioides.
Lepanthopsis astrophora
Actually quite the opposite, it's a spring/summer bloomer, it was trying to adjust to my conditions and this "winter" didn't help at all hahaNot one I see very often. Not sure why it seems "rare" in collections. Is it a strictly late autumn/early winter bloomer?
One of my favourites that flowered a year or so ago; Paraphalaenopsis serpentilingua.
A good size plant can have leaves that are 2 or 3 feet long and it grows upside down, hanging from the branches of a larger tree.

Stenorrynchus speciosum, a terrestrial native to cooler areas of South America. I find it a very easy grower, just another houseplant. It likes Phalaenopsis light levels, and gets a period of less water during the winter. The plant is actually still just in bud. All the flash is actually just the bracts which encase the flowers:
